Laser-micromachined silicon-platelet feedhorns for large-scale submillimeter and millimeter-wave focal planes
Jason E. Austermann, James Beall, Andrew Forsman +10
We present the fabrication and characterization of the first silicon-platelet feedhorn arrays produced using laser micromachining. First, we present a demonstration of the technolo…
CCAT: Characterization of the first science-grade MKID array for the Prime-Cam 850 GHz module
Anthony I. Huber, Jordan Wheeler, James Burgoyne +16
The Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST) is a 6-meter crossed-Dragone telescope developed by the CCAT collaboration. Sited at 5600 m on Cerro Chajnantor in the Atacama Plateau…
CCAT: The 410 GHz camera module for FYST - design and testing of the MKID focal plane
Scott C. Chapman, Jordan Wheeler, Anthony Huber +17
Prime-Cam, the primary first-light instrument for the Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope (FYST) developed by the Cerro Chajnantor Atacama Telescope (CCAT) Collaboration, will accom…
CCAT: Silicon-Platelet Feedhorns for Submillimeter Wavelengths
Jason Austermann, James Beall, James R. Burgoyne +12
Silicon-platelet feedhorn arrays are an established technology at millimeter wavelengths that, for some applications, can provide significant advantages over traditional direct-mac…
Development of Silicon Micromachined Waveguide Filter-Banks for On-Chip Spectrometers
Matthew A. Koc, Jason Austermann, James Beall +4
Development of high-speed, spatial-mapping spectrometers in the millimeter and far-infrared frequencies would enable entirely new research avenues in astronomy and cosmology. An "o…
CCAT: Design, Implementation, and Testing of a System to Read Out over 10,000 280 GHz KIDs using RFSoC Electronics
Darshan A. Patel, Yuhan Wang, Cody J. Duell +27
Over the past decade, kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) have emerged as a viable superconducting technology for astrophysics at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths. KIDs spa…
CCAT: Comparisons of 280 GHz TiN and Al Kinetic Inductance Detector Arrays
Cody J. Duell, Jason Austermann, James Beall +27
The CCAT Collaboration's six-meter Fred Young Submillimeter Telescope is scheduled to begin observing in the Chilean Atacama in 2025, targeting a variety of science goals throughou…
Conceptual Design of the Modular Detector and Readout System for the CMB-S4 survey experiment
D. R. Barron, Z. Ahmed, J. Aguilar +47
We present the conceptual design of the modular detector and readout system for the Cosmic Microwave Background Stage 4 (CMB-S4) ground-based survey experiment. CMB-S4 will map the…
The Simons Observatory microwave SQUID multiplexing detector module design
Heather McCarrick, Erin Healy, Zeeshan Ahmed +56
Advances in cosmic microwave background (CMB) science depend on increasing the number of sensitive detectors observing the sky. New instruments deploy large arrays of superconducti…
